Jingle All the Way to Enniskillen's Christmas Craft and Food Fair

Enniskillen set to play host to inaugural Christmas Craft and Food Fair in support of Northern Ireland Children’s Hospice

Craigville Garden Centre, Sligo Road, Enniskillen will be transformed into a Festive Wonderland from Thursday 22nd to Sunday 25th November in an effort to raise vital funds for Northern Ireland Children’s Hospice Christmas campaign, Jingle All the Way.

The Christmas market will be packed full of gorgeous gifts, freshly baked treats, multicultural cuisine and warm drinks, from Craigville’s very own Log Cabin Coffee Shop.

The fair also has great potential for some Christmas shopping as Crafters will be offering a range of unique handmade gifts. You are sure to find something special for your nearest and dearest!

Entry to the fair is free and kids will have the opportunity to take a selfie with our Elfie.

“This is a fantastic opportunity for people in the Fermanagh area to get involved in our Jingle All The Way campaign. Christmas Fairs are extremely popular amongst everyone so it is really exciting that we can hold such a brilliant event in the local area.

“We have taken all aspects of the Fair into consideration to ensure this is an event for all the family to enjoy. As this is the first year Enniskillen has held this fair, we hope everyone will come along and get into the festive spirit. Christmas is a great time to be charitable, so the opportunity to attend an event like this knowing that you are helping to raise vital funds for Hospice can only add to the experience”. I would also like to thank Balcas, Craigville Garden Centre and Balcas for supporting this event for NI Hospice.

Northern Ireland Children’s Hospice

• Established in 1996, Northern Ireland Children’s Hospice is the only dedicated palliative care service in the province and the only organization that can offer high level support to life limited children with complex needs who require 24 hour specialist care.

• Every year, Northern Ireland Children’s Hospice cares for over 300 life-limited infants, children and young people and their families living in Northern Ireland who need care that only the Children’s Hospice can provide.

• It costs £3.82 million per year to run children’s services. Approximately 35% of these costs are met by statutory funding. The remaining costs are met by a combination of voluntary donations, grants and trading income.

• As part of its three-year Strategic Plan, (2018-2021) Northern Ireland Children’s Hospice endeavors to open all 10 Children’s Hospice beds by 2021. In an early demonstration of confidence in its growth strategy, the Department of Health has allocated £170,000 recurrent funding which represents 50% of the cost of opening the sixth bed. Northern Ireland Children’s Hospice must match this by raising the remaining 50%.
